('Fight the good fight')
Ephesians 1 v.3-6
********
God be blessed, He who has us blessed
With His blessings, true, now confessed
Having all spiritual blessings
In Christ, to Him our soul now sings
Chosen before the foundation
Of the world, sure, from each nation
That we should holy, blameless be
Before Him in love, here now see
And he has too us predestined
To be His sons (/daughters), with no rescind
To be adopted, His children
From among human kith and kin
'Tis so we praise His glorious grace
And His mercies here we do trace
By His grace we made accepted
In Christ, in Him, the beloved

Charles Wesley wrote over 6,000 hymns - or over 8,00 with those not printed included. I'm not near that!

But it ain't Christmas yet. Some poets will shoot me if I mention Christmas before December. lol.
Sir Orchi Non Sequitur, you will so confuse them that they won't know whether it's Christmas or a wicca fertility rite
